Every woman's body is different and your bumps begin showing at different stages. You want a defined baby bump but you don't want to push it off too towards the end. For one thing, you may go into labor very early. Miss your chance and you tend to pack on the pounds during the last 2 months. My most import tip for your maternity photo session. Invest in an experienced and talented photographer. If you've not hired one before, you may have initial sticker price shock at their rates. Make sure you thoroughly look over their portfolio. Ask lots of questions before you begin working with them. If being able to look through raw proofs is important to you. Make sure you have that conversation before you book. Every maternity photographer has a different work process and this may not be something they offer. For me, giving you all the unedited high resolution jpegs straight out of the camera. This way you can select select your favorites and takes the guessing work out for the photographer. Ask your maternity photographer if you can have all of the unedited digital files. Often times Photographers will provide digital images wit have watermarks. I am not a big fan of this. If you ever share on social media, make sure to properly credit the photographer. Create a mood board with photos that inspire you. If you search "maternity photos" you will see thousands of high quality results. Get a feel for the type of style that you like, this is your photo shoot and it should be tailored to your taste. Dresses can get pricey and you could easily spend a couple hundred on a dress if you wanted. Amazon sells maternity gowns at the fraction of the cost. Keep in mind that you're paying your quality and while this dress looked great in photos, the design isn't anything special. Many maternity dresses have an element of sheerness to them, even when you don't intend for them to be sheer. Make sure you have a bra and panties that matches your skin tone and has no patterns. The camera will pick up things you wouldn't expect. The worst thing is to look at your photos after the session. Realize that your hot pink panties are showing through your dress. If you are not familiar with the fundamentals of photography. All you need to know is that lighting is everything. Make sure your photographer is shooting either very early in the morning or around an hour before sunset to get that perfect dewy glow. The smallest details can sometimes make a big difference in photos. Make sure your dress has been steamed or ironed to remove all wrinkles before the shoot. If the fabric is especially prone to wrinkles, I don't recommend wearing it on the drive over. Slip into the dress upon arrival. Making sure your nails are either freshly painted or bare is also very important because you will have many close-up images of your hands holding your belly. Chipped nail polish is an unsightly distraction and can take away from the image's quality. Make sure you drink lots of water and get plenty of sleep the night before your photo shoot. Dehydration and fatigue will show up on your face and it will make your session feel more like a drag than a fun time. Believe it or not, posing for photos for a couple hours can really tire you out. You'll need your energy to keep the momentum going! The best maternity photos come from genuine and spontaneous moments, which means your favorite snapshots will happen when you're relaxed and having fun. With a big baby bump, you want to find the most flattering angles that highlight the bump and still gives you a shape. Often times a straight on photo of a pregnant woman just makes her look boxy and bulky. Holding your belly with your hands helps to define the shape. Look through your inspiration board and find flattering poses. Practice at home in front of the mirror, seriously! Planning id the key to a successful maternity photo session. Keeping in mind the element of the on location photo session, wind, heat, humidity.
